Summer 1
Week 1
We have had a fantastic first week back in Year 2!
On Mondays this term, we are lucky to be doing dance in PE with a dance teacher. The children thoroughly enjoyed learning a dance to 'Friend like Me' from Aladdin.
On Tuesday, we had a visit from 'Past Productions' who delivered a brilliant Tudor Workshop for the children. it included, jousting, Tudor dancing, artefact handling, shield making and, some re-enactments of Tudor events involving some of the children as the characters!
In English this week, the children have written recounts of some of their favourite moments from the Easter holidays.
In Maths, we have introduced the children to fractions. They have been learning that a fraction is a part of a whole, you can have equal and unequal parts and, finding a half of a shape.
Science this term is focussing around Materials. The children were identifying the materials they could see around the classroom and why they thought the objects were made from these materials.
The children identified the countries in Northern Europe in Geography this week. We discussed how they are colder than countries in Southern Europe because they are further away from the equator.
